    Pleased with what I was offered today (better than what I've been offered over previous months):

    Free Nokia E65 (which I asked for), 800 anytime minutes, 2000 text messages, plus free weekend calls and 1MB web allowance - £25 a month on an 18 month contract.

    Needless to say, I happily accepted :)

    deedeeliz, looking at my last bills, I averaged just over £26 a month over the last year. There were a few months around the £35-£40 mark due to roaming abroad.

    This is the best I could manage after reading these threads..............
    New Sony Ericsson k850i.......800 cross network mins and 1000 texts.
    Either unlimited texts or O2 to O2 free calls and a bluetooth headset for £25/month on 18 month contract.
    I thought that wasn't a bad deal as I didn't want to go down the cashback route again, wondering if I'm sending in the correct bills etc.
    It's for my daughter so I'm hoping that it'll be £25 max per month now !!!
    If I sell the k850i for around £200 and she continues using the phone she has now.....That works out at less than £14 per month for 18 months...Not bad imho.
    I'm sure you !!!!!!s will do better !

    I managed to get


    New K850i blue (free)
    600 minutes
    1000 text
    1Mb data
    free o2-o2 calls
    £20 month
    18 month contract
    256 MB memory card (I think this might come as standard)

    they did offer me 12 month contract at £25 but i think i will probably stick with the same phone for 18 months and this year i didnt even upgrade till about 4 months after my contract expired so 18 months will probably work for me!

    was this a good deal?

    I have phoned a few times since my contract came up for renewal in September. I initially opted for the £25 simplicity tariff, and called today to ask for my PAC code, pointing out I had seen a better offer elsewhere. The very helpful lady put me on hold and came back with the offer I mentioned above. I was quite surprised as it was a lot more generous than what I had been offered previously!

    Moral of the story: if you can, hang in there for a better deal!

    Right, a bit like the guy above, I got this from O2 Retention after I asked for my PAC code:

    New SE K850i (free)
    Online 35 (Talker)
    750 minutes
    100 text
    200Mb data (internet bolt on for 7.50)
    free o2-o2 calls
    £20 month
    18 month contract

    She originally offered me online 30 (500 mins), but I asked if she could do more and I got Online 35. Didn't take a lot of pushing - wish I'd asked for the net free but that deal was better than I was going to get at 3, so i was happy.

    Woo, new phone on Monday/Tuesday

    Hi again,
    Just got off the phone with o2 again. I intimated that I was not happy with what they offered at first. The kind lady; it's always the ladies;);went away for 3mins and offered:

    additonal 150 mins a month for the next 3months,

    o2 long weekends instead of o2to o2 and

    free bluetooth headset.
    Very happy:j
